Agree (which is what e.g. we provide when using STARANISO via autoPROC
[1]).

And in the same vein: those depositing isotropically truncated data
should consider also providing data to a higher diffraction limit to
give a potentially more accurate picture (if there is even a slight
indication of anisotropy - which there often is).

I find it very helpful even looking at an idealised (and therefore
simplified) picture of anisotropy as in

  http://staraniso.globalphasing.org/anisotropy_about.html

We can consider

 (1) for refinement:

     (1a) green+red, i.e. spherical (i.e. isotropically) truncated
          data

     (1b) green+blue, i.e. anisotropycally truncated data

 (2) for deposition:

     (2a) green+red => full sphere, but dropping real observations
          (blue)

     (2b) green+blue => all observations, but not providing
          insignificant/weak data (red) in all directions

     (2c) a sphere to the "tip" of blue (i.e. anisotropic diffraction
          limit) => all observations and all insignificant/weak data

Cheers

Clemens

[1] https://www.globalphasing.com/autoproc/ - which gives a mmCIF file
    with (2a), (2b) and (2c) ready for deposition.
